Custom Home Designs - Scandinavian Inspiration
In Norway, in order to become a certified Construction worker, let alone Master Builder, you must pass a Building Science and Design exam as well as build a structure that incorporates those principles. This home is inspired by Scandinavian design that combines organic elements with the simplicity of a modern A-frame, described as a design reminiscent of the “Låve” (barn) that you see nestled in the countryside throughout Norway and Scandinavia. Natural light and minimalistic architecture, maximizing useful space and functionality are concepts built into the design.

The HVAC system was engineered for this particular building and this particular lot, with an added fresh air intake for oxygen supply
